I'll tell you a funny story, many many many years ago we had a fish tank in the old Lab with some leeches in it for use in Medical Procedures.

One day the whole lot escaped from the tank, never to be seen again :oogle
The people who worked in the Lab were a little uneasy about where they sat and worked for some time after that

I'm pretty sure I'd freak out if I had one of those on me.
Eekkkkkkkkk I know I'd freak out, creepy looking things they are.

Thanks for sharing and for the memories.... Good Shots!

When I saw my friends bitten by this Leech, it made me sick.
I have never seen a leech before until last week.
I can't imagine surrounded with many leeches!

Me too. Although I have been warned many time to beware of leeches, but never seen one before until last week.
